mungo1974 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) Cool stuff,often thought ARC should have a GB for the T-6/SNJ/Harvard....so,so many schemes to choose from both military and warbird/civil.

Armitage Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Clave, fantastic work! That must have taken you AGES to do. :P I'm very happy to see you will have the SAAF version in there too. They used to fly those beauties out of an airbase very near to my home when I was a kid. The SAAF used them as trainers for their pilots. The SAAF Harvard Aerobatics Team still flies them at a lot of airshows, and the crowd absolutely love them. I watched them in the airshow in my home town a few months back. They kept stearing me away every time I tried to get closer. :D Have you done your illustration in the SAAF camo colours of the Angolan war, the NMF with yellow colours of the SAAF training aircraft, or the SAAF Harvard Aerobatics Team NMF with dayglo orange/red? Sheesh, I step away from ARC for a little while and look what you've posted in the meantime! Again, fantastic work! :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites

North American T-6G of the South Korean Air Force 1952. North American Harvard IIA of the Southern Rhodesia Air Force 1950. North American T-6F of the South Vietnam Air Force 1960.
